Has anyone got confirmation emails yet? I have one from Manchester, some other departments at my other unis have sent them too, but maths departments seem to be a bit lazy/slow

Nothing from Imperial or Bristol (where we're competing ) but I have confirmation from Cambridge (but not my college), Bath and Warwick.

"I am writing to you concerning your application for a place on our degree BSc Mathematics (G100). I am very pleased to tell you that I have recommended to our Faculty Office that you be made an offer for a place. You should hear formally and in more detail from the College and from UCAS in due course. I am also inviting you to make a visit to the department for an Introductory Day on Wednesday 17th November 2010 at 1:30pm.

About acknowledgements and offers, I really wouldn't worry. My last acknowledgement was from Durham. In terms of offers, I got Nottingham in about 3 weeks, York about 3 weeks after that (same day as Cambridge interview), Kings in December, Cambridge offer in January and rejection from Durham in March. But it all varies. I know people who got all there offers within a month and others who got all their offers about February time
